I still giggle over his asshat gotcha post regarding the origin country of the (first) covid vaccine and the response was...Germany, created by Turkish scientists.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) slams John Kerry for flying to the climate conference in a private jet.

He gleefully points out that no Republican on the stage has a private jet — before being informed that Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) indeed has one.
Edit: Go to the link for clarification about the Portman *jet*. LOL.

On Sunday Cruz was busy watching CNN where Jake Tapper was leading a discussion about wayward Republican Liz Cheney and her prospects politically in the future. The question asked by Tapper was "Is there a lane for Liz Cheney in New Hampshire in 2024?"

It was during that segment that inspiration struck Cruz and he was compelled to express his comedic genius in a tweet answering Tapper's question. "Yes," Cruz quipped, "It’s called the Democratic primary."
Cheney: I know you’re posturing for the secessionist vote, Ted. But my party, the Republican party, saved the Union. You swore an oath to the Constitution. Act like it.
Kinzinger: Damn son, Liz brought the heat on you!
Cruz: These two need to hurry up and get their bottom-rated @msnbc show.
Kinzinger: Senator, you’ve been given a huge position to lead and tell people truth. Yet you have squandered it on lies and abused the patriotism of those who trusted you. I will have zero regrets… will you?
Swalwell: Adam, if you want @tedcruz’s support you’re going to have to attack his wife.

Ted Cruz actually thinks that he is going to get elected President of the United States in 2024. This is too good! Interview this morning.

It's a TRAP!!

Ted knows there is a legitimate question as to his natural born-ness so he's going to run to invite the birther lawsuits, his will be heard all the way to SCOTUS, and then retroactively (or somethinig) Obama too will be held ineligible and jailed and hanged and stuff.

Cruz is indeed up for re-election in 2024.

But Lloyd Bentsen ran for re-election in 1988 while also running for vice president. (Was re-elected, wasn't the vice president.) So I presume Texas law allows a candidate to seek more than one office.

How expensive would it be to run for Senate and POTUS at once?

Especially if Democrats get someone good to run for the Senate seat.

The Cruzer has, as I recall, thrown his hat in the ring for the last several elections only to drop out when lack of interest manifests itself. As things are, I can't imagine the GOP really backing him. He might be a bit of a spoiler in some of the primaries but that I think is about the sum total of his viability at this point. I don't know if anyone even takes him seriously anymore.

I still read the thread title as "Fellatio", probably because of his relationship with Trump.
